    Since in my case the buckle doesn't seem to interfere with anything, and I don't care if anybody sees it, I leave it where I did the buckling, at my side.

    It never occurred to me to take the trouble of dragging the entire belt around in order to put the buckle at a different place. (I guess the operation would have to be reversed when undressing?)

    Continuing with my theme that Highland Dress is clothing, by analogy I wouldn't see the point in, after I buckled my trouser belt, rotating the entire belt so the buckle ended up somewhere other than where it was buckled, in front.

    Though I can imagine instances when that might be done, say if it's a big bulky buckle and I'm wearing a waistcoat or something over the buckle.

    A new topic for sure Jock.

    I started out in the back but it was such a hassle I moved it around to the front for convenience. Tuck the buckle under the sporran itself.

    Front is easier to buckle and easier to unbuckle.

    Course, sporrans don't hold much of anything besides a "War Kitten." Hardly wear them. Prefer a vest with pockets or a nice leather fanny pack in lieu of a sporran.
